The cabin

The day after Christmas we headed up to the cabin! We were hoping for lots of snow so we could do lots of sledding and we were not disappointed!

 Will only went down a handful of times, but once he discovered he could stay on the Rhino...that's where he was!

 There was a LOT of snow! Enough to make a snow cave on the deck.

 Jonah got pretty sick while up there but tried munching on celery for the first time and LOVED it!

 We spent lots of lazy time around the fire.

 And the table..

 And we had to get a picture of all the kids in their new jammies. Unfortunately, the Sheltons were still sick so they didn't come up.

 Back to sledding!

 Will and his favorite cousin, Adam.

 Since Jonah wasn't feeling very well, he and I spent most of our time inside the cabin so we didn't get to get as much sledding (or take as many pictures) as I would have liked. Luckily, we have lots of nice Aunts willing to snuggle this sweet boy.

 I had to post this one because when Rach wouldn't smile for me I said, "I need a good picture of you to look back on and wonder why you were a stinker and we don't have any cute smiley pictures of you." Ha ha! Payback Rach!

 Jacob was a little obsessed with stoking the fire.

 Will was stuck to Adam like glue....especially when Adam got his funny picture app out.

 The cabin was great. Just the mountain therapy we needed! Since the Shelton's weren't able to be there we postponed our while elephant gift exchange to the next day, after we all got home and the colds were a little subsided. We had the party at our house and the gifts didn't disappoint!

 Grandpa forgot which gifts he had brought and ended up choosing his own gift!

 Kate chose a model car and did not want to switch with anyone. She was very happy with her choice.

 There were a lot of bead kits going around.

It was fun to be able to include the Sheltons in this silly party.
